THAT is a d@mned good question.
I've always been into conservation in one way or another. Hubby, a Hotshot and also typically a logger, sprouts oak trees on our sunporch. Which we solomnly and without media fanfare PLANT.
I know where you're coming from. Shame that the people who are sooooo demonized by the environazis are the ones with the true love of our outdoors...and those who hug trees - well, if you dropped a treehugger in the middle of the woods, in the middle of a thousand miles of nowhere, could he/she find his/her way out?
